[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No kid has ‘got it’ before puberty. There are plenty of parents who swear their 9-year old is the new new thing and will be at the Nou Camp one day, but no serious coach or scout will claim a kid has a long-term future in the game until after puberty sets in. If your kid is still having fun, let them have fun. Learn the skills of being a good player and wait for the physical side to catch up. If it doesn’t, then ask again then if they are still having fun and decide what comes next based on that answer. [/quote] There are plenty of kids who 'got it' long before puberty and while some fizzle out or lose their advantages after puberty, the vast majority of those playing in MLS academies and in college were the 'best' players at U10-U12.[/quote]
